Ce fonds a été constitué grâce aux versements successifs de maître Jacquemain (Pol) en mars 1957, de maître Vaissade (Philippe) en mars 1994 et de maîtres Vaissade (Jérôme) et Couëdelo (Olivier) en avril 2009 et mai 2018. Les deux derniers versements effectués proviennent de l’étude de Fontenay-Trésigny du fait de la transformation de l’étude de Chaumes-en-Brie en annexe fin 2003. Le premier versement de 1957 concerne les archives de l’étude de 1499 à 1833, avec le minutier et les répertoires de l’étude. Il comprend également les documents provenant des offices rattachés d’Aubepierre, de Beauvoir et des deux autres études ayant existé à Chaumes-en-Brie, entre 1538 et 1681 pour la première et de 1623 à 1742 pour la seconde. Les archives de cette dernière ont été reprises par maître Dupin (Maurice Charles) en 1742 suite au décès de maître Duchemin (Philippe), qui a provoqué la fusion des deux études.

  • LATTERIA OVARO Nasce a 525 Metri D’Altitudine Nel Caseificio Di Ovaro, Da Cui Prende Il Nome Carnico Di “Davar”

È proprio la montagna a segnare il carattere di questo formaggio latteria che si presenta con una pasta leggermente occhiata ed un colore paglierino che aumenta, assieme al gusto, con l’avanzare della stagionatura. Ideale la versione con una maturazione dai 4 ai 6 mesi. Peso per pezzo: 6,50 kg Pezzi per cartone: 2 Stagionatura: 30-60-90-120-mezzano MONTASIO DOP PDM (Prodotto Della Montagna) Il Montasio prodotto nel caseificio di Ovaro è l’unico Montasio prodotto in Friuli che, secondo le direttive del consorzio, può fregiarsi della denominazione PDM (Prodotto Della Montagna), in quanto ha la peculiarità di essere prodotto e stagionato in un caseificio ad oltre 500 metri di altitudine, con latte proveniente da zone oltre i 500 metri. Il sapore, morbido e delicato quando è fresco si fa via via più deciso ed aromatico. La pasta, da bianca compatta con una caratteristica occhiatura omogenea ed una crosta liscia ed elastica, con il passare dei mesi diventa granulosa e friabile con una crosta secca e più scura. Forma cilindrica, altezza 6-10 cm, larghezza 30-40 cm. Peso per pezzo: 6,5 kg Pezzi per cartone: 2 Stagionatura: 60-90-120-mezzano-oltre 12 mesi-oltre 18 mesi.

Edwards, J.S.A., Kowrygo, B, & Rejman, K. pp 641-654, Publisher, Worshipful Company of Cooks Research Centre, Bournemouth, Poole, UK Flavor description and classification of selected natural cheeses Delores H. Chambers1, Edgar Chambers IV1 and Dallas Johnson2 1The Sensory Analysis Center, Department of Human Nutrition, Kansas State University, Justin Hall, Manhattan, KS 66506-1407, USA 2Department of Statistics, Kansas State University, Dickens Hall, Manhattan, KS 66506, USA Abstract Intensities of 30 flavor attributes were measured for 42 cheeses. Rated intensities of flavor characteristics generally fell in the low to moderate range for all cheeses. Some of the flavor characteristics (dairy fat, dairy sour, dairy sweet, sharp, astringent, bitter, salty, sour, and sweet) were present in all cheeses, and some (cooked milk, animalic, goaty, fruity, moldy, mushroom, and nutty) were specific to only a few of the cheeses evaluated in this study. The flavor of each of the 42 cheeses is described. Similarities in flavor were observed among many of the individual cheeses. Therefore, a clustering scheme was developed to show the overall flavor relationships among the cheeses. Those relationships are schematically represented by a tree diagram. Proximity on the tree diagram indicates a high degree of flavor similarity among the types of cheese. Introduction In most countries, consumption of cheese has been on the rise over the past decades (Richards, 1989; Magretti, 1996; Havrila, 1997; Hoebermann, 1997; Anonymous, 2002).

  • Bovine Benefactories: an Examination of the Role of Religion in Cow Sanctuaries Across the United States
    BOVINE BENEFACTORIES: AN EXAMINATION OF THE ROLE OF RELIGION IN COW SANCTUARIES ACROSS THE UNITED STATES _______________________________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board _______________________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY ________________________________________________________________ by Thomas Hellmuth Berendt August, 2018 Examing Committee Members: Sydney White, Advisory Chair, TU Department of Religion Terry Rey, TU Department of Religion Laura Levitt, TU Department of Religion Tom Waidzunas, External Member, TU Deparment of Sociology ABSTRACT This study examines the growing phenomenon to protect the bovine in the United States and will question to what extent religion plays a role in the formation of bovine sanctuaries. My research has unearthed that there are approximately 454 animal sanctuaries in the United States, of which 146 are dedicated to farm animals. However, of this 166 only 4 are dedicated to pigs, while 17 are specifically dedicated to the bovine. Furthermore, another 50, though not specifically dedicated to cows, do use the cow as the main symbol for their logo. Therefore the bovine is seemingly more represented and protected than any other farm animal in sanctuaries across the United States. The question is why the bovine, and how much has religion played a role in elevating this particular animal above all others. Furthermore, what constitutes a sanctuary? Does

  • Judging and Competition Awards Guide
    Judging and competition awards guide marquee sponsors: 2016 ACS JUDGING & COMPETITION RESULTS DES MOINES, IOWA JULY 29, 2016 The American Cheese Society (ACS) is the leader in supporting and promoting American cheeses. Founded in 1983 to support the North American artisan and specialty cheese industry, ACS provides advocacy, education, business development, and networking opportunities for members of the cheese industry, while striving to continually raise the quality and availability of cheese in the Americas. The cheesemakers listed on the following pages represent all of the entrants in the 2016 ACS Judging & Competition: 260 companies submitting 1,843 products. Winners in each category are listed separately. Unlike other cheese competitions, where cheeses are graded down for technical defects, the goal of the ACS Judging & Competition is to give positive recognition to those cheeses that are of the highest aesthetic and technical quality. As a result, the highest quality cheeses are those that ACS feels deserve the recognition of an award, based on a minimum number of points awarded (totaling 100 points possible) for first, second, or third place. In categories or sub-categories where the minimum number of points is not earned, no award is given. Our congratulations go out to all of the dedicated, passionate, creative producers who work daily to bring great cheese to life, to market, and to the 33rd Annual ACS Conference & Competition. Thank you to Gourmet Foods International, the sponsor of the ACS Judging & Competition and Awards Ceremony. Gourmet Foods International’s generous support helps to make this renowned judging possible. A LETTER FROM THE 2016 JUDGING & COMPETITION COMMITTEE CHAIR This Awards Booklet represents the culmination of 12 months of hard work, dedication, and commitment.
